Strong Enough to Bend - Beth Nielsen Chapman

There’s a tree out in the backyard

That never has been broken by the wind

And the reason its still standing

It was strong enough to bend

For years, we have stayed together

As lovers and as friends

What we have will last forever

If we’re strong enough to bend

When you say something that you can’t take back

Big wind blows and you hear a little crack

When you say «Hey well I might be wrong»

You can sway with the wind till the storm is gone

Sway with the wind till the storm is gone

Like a tree out in the backyard

That never has been broken by the wind

Our love will last forever

If we’re strong enough to bend

When you start thinkin’that you know it all

Big wind blows and a branch will fall

When you say «Hey this job takes two»

We can sway with the wind till the skies turn blue

Sway with the wind till the skies turn blue

Like a tree out in the backyard

That never has been broken by the wind

Our love will last forever if we’re strong enough to bend

Our love will last forever if we’re strong enough to bend.
